Jeremias 43
1 IN THE FOURTH YEAR OF JOAKIM son of Josias king of Juda, the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Nangyari na matapos ang pagpapahayag ni Jeremias sa lahat ng tao ang lahat ng mga salita ni Yahweh na kanilang Diyos ang nagsabi sa kaniya na sabihin.
2 Take you a roll of a book, and write upon it all the words which I spoke to you against Jerusalem, and against Juda, and against all the nations, from the day when I spoke to you, from the days of Josias king of Juda, even to this day.
Sina Azarias na anak ni Osias, Johanan na anak ni Karea at lahat ng mga lalaking mayayabang ay sinabi kay Jeremias na, “Nagsasabi ka ng mga kasinungalingan. Hindi ka isinugo ni Yahweh na ating Diyos upang sabihin, 'Huwag pumunta sa Egipto upang manirahan doon.'
3 Perhaps the house of Juda will hear all the evils which I purpose to do to them; that they may turn from their evil way; and [so] I will be merciful to their iniquities and their sins.
Sapagkat inuudyukan ka ni Baruc na anak ni Nerias laban sa amin upang ibigay kami sa kamay ng mga Caldeo, upang maipapatay mo kami at upang maging mga bihag kami sa Babilonia.”
4 So Jeremias called Baruch the son of Nerias: and he wrote from the mouth of Jeremias all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him, on a roll of a book.
Kaya si Johanan na anak ni Karea, lahat ng mga prinsipe ng hukbo at lahat ng mga tao ay tumanggi na pakinggan ang tinig ni Yahweh na manirahan sa lupain ng Juda.
5 And Jeremias commanded Baruch, saying, I am in prison; I can’t enter into the house of the Lord:
Kinuha lahat ang natira ng Juda nina Johanan na anak ni Karea at lahat ng mga pinuno ng hukbo na bumalik mula sa lahat ng bansa kung saan sila nagkahiwa-hiwalay upang manirahan sa lupain ng Juda.
6 so you shall read in this roll in the ears of the people in the house of the Lord, on the fast day; and in the ears of all Juda that come out of their cities, you shall read to them.
Kinuha nila ang mga lalaki at mga babae, mga anak at ang mga anak na babae ng hari at ang bawat tao na hinayaang manatili ni Nebuzeradan na pinuno ng tagabantay ng hari kasama si Gedalias na anak ni Ahicam na anak ni Safan. Kinuha din nila si propeta Jeremias at si Baruc na anak ni Nerias.
7 Peradventure their supplication will come before the Lord, and they will turn from their evil way: for great is the wrath and the anger of the Lord, which he has pronounced against this people.
Pumunta sila sa lupain ng Egipto, sa Tafnes, dahil hindi sila nakinig sa tinig ni Yahweh.
8 And Baruch did according to all that Jeremias commanded him—reading in the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house.
Kaya dumating ang salita ni Yahweh kay Jeremias sa Tafnes at sinabi,
9 And it came to pass in the eighth year of king Joakim, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem, and the house of Juda, proclaimed a fast before the Lord.
“Kumuha ka ng ilang malalaking mga bato sa iyong kamay, at sa paningin ng mga tao sa Juda, itago mo ito sa latag ng semento sa pasukan ng bahay ng Faraon sa Tafnes.
10 And Baruch read in the book the words of Jeremias in the house of the Lord, in the house of Gamarias son of Saphan the scribe, in the upper court, in the entrance of the new gate of the house of the Lord, and in the ears of all the people.
At sabihin mo sa kanila, “Ito ang sinasabi ni Yahweh ng mga hukbo na Diyos ng Israel, 'Tingnan ninyo, malapit ko ng isugo ang mga mensahero upang kunin si Nebucadnezar na hari ng Babilonia bilang aking lingkod. Ilalagay ko ang kaniyang trono sa ibabaw ng mga batong ito na iyong ibinaon, Jeremias. Ilalagay ni Nabucadnezar ang kaniyang pabilyon sa ibabaw ng mga ito.
11 And Michaeas the son of Gamarias the son of Saphan heard all the words of the Lord, out of the book.
Sapagkat darating siya at lulusubin ang lupain ng Egipto. Sinuman ang itinalagang mamatay ay ibibigay sa kamatayan. Sinuman ang itinalagang mabihag ay bibihagin. At ang sinumang itinalaga sa espada ay maibibigay sa espada.
12 And he went down to the king's house, into the house of the scribe: and, behold, there were sitting there all the princes, Elisama the scribe, and Dalaeas the son of Selemias, and Jonathan the son of Acchobor, and Gamarias the son of Saphan, and Sedekias the son of Ananias, and all the princes.
At susunugin ko ang mga templo ng mga diyus-diyosan ng Egipto. Susunugin sila o sasakupin ni Nebucadnezar. Lilinisin niya ang lupain ng Egipto tulad ng mga pastol na nagtatanggal ng kuto sa kanilang kasuotan. Lalabas siya na matagumpay sa lugar na iyon.
13 And Michaeas reported to them all the words which he had heard Baruch reading in the ears of the people.
Babasagin niya ang mga batong haligi sa Heliopolis sa lupain ng Egipto. Susunugin niya ang mga templo ng mga diyus-diyosan sa Egipto.
14 And all the princes sent to Baruch son of Nerias Judin the son of Nathanias, the son of Selemias, the son of Chusi, saying, Take in your hand the roll in which you read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch took the roll, and went down to them.
15 And they said to him, Read [it] again in our ears. And Baruch read [it].
16 And it came to pass, when they [had] heard all the words, [that] they took counsel each with his neighbour, and said, Let us by all means tell the king all these words.
17 And they asked Baruch, saying, Where did you write all these words?
18 And Baruch said, Jeremias told me from his [own] mouth all these words, and I wrote them in a book.
19 And they said to Baruch, Go, and hide, you and Jeremias; let no man know where you [are].
20 And they went in to the king into the court, and gave the roll [to one] to keep in the house of Elisama; and they told the king all these words.
21 And the king sent Judin to fetch the roll: and he took it out of the house of Elisama: and Judin read in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes who stood round the king.
22 Now the king was sitting in the winter house: and [there was] a fire on the hearth before him.
23 And it came to pass when Judin had read three or four leaves, he cut them off with a penknife, and cast [them] into the fire that was on the hearth, until the whole roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
24 And the king and his servants that heard all these words sought not [the Lord], and tore not their garments.
25 But Elnathan and Godolias suggested to the king that he should burn the roll.
26 And the king commanded Jeremeel the king's son, and Saraeas the son of Esriel, to take Baruch and Jeremias: but they were hidden.
27 Then the word of the Lord came to Jeremias, after the king had burnt the roll, [even] all the words which Baruch wrote from the mouth of Jeremias, saying,
28 Again take you another roll, and write all the words that were on the roll, which king Joakim has burnt.
29 And you shall say, Thus says the Lord; You have burnt this roll, saying, Why have you written therein, saying, The king of Babylon shall certainly come in, and destroy this land, and man and cattle shall fail from off it?
30 Therefore thus says the Lord concerning Joakim king of Juda; He shall not have [a man] to sit on the throne of David: and his carcass shall be cast forth in the heat by day, and in the frost by night.
31 And I will visit him, and his family, and his servants: and I will bring upon him, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and upon the land of Juda, all the evils which I spoke of to them; and they listened not.
32 And Baruch took another roll, and wrote upon it from the mouth of Jeremias all the words of the book which Joakim had burnt: and there were yet more words added to it like the former.
